Prompt / Lyrics
[INTRO – soft acoustic picking] (GENTLE RIFF) (ROOM TONE) You don’t have to say it… I can see it in your eyes… --- [VERSE 1 – gentle] You carry everything alone Like no one’s ever coming home Like every word you try to say Gets buried just a breath away You think that I don’t understand The weight you hide in your hands But I’ve been watching from the side Every time you tried to hide --- [PRE-CHORUS – slight lift] You don’t have to fight this on your own… Not tonight… --- [CHORUS – soft, emotional] [SUNG – vulnerable] If you fall, I’ll catch you in the dark If you break, I’ll hold you as you fall apart You don’t have to be afraid tonight I’ll lift you towards the light If you fade, I’ll stay til morning comes Through the pain, of what’s been done You don’t have to disappear this time I’ll always be by your side --- [VERSE 2 – deeper] I hear it in the way you breathe Like every second’s hard to keep Like something’s pulling you below But you don’t wanna let it show You laugh it off, you play it cool Like pain’s just something people use But I can see right through the act Every piece you try to mask --- [PRE-CHORUS] You don’t have to hold it all inside… Not tonight… --- [CHORUS – fuller] If you fall, I’ll catch you in the dark If you break, I’ll hold you as you fall apart You don’t have to be afraid tonight I’ll lift you towards the light If you fade, I’ll stay til morning comes Through the pain, of what’s been done You don’t have to disappear this time I’ll always be by your side --- [BRIDGE – stripped, almost spoken] (CLEAN GUITAR ONLY) Even if you push me away Even if you don’t want me to stay Even if you don’t know what to say I’m not leaving… Not this time… --- [FINAL CHORUS – biggest emotional lift] [FULL ACOUSTIC + LIGHT STRINGS] If you fall, I’ll catch you in the dark If you break, I’ll hold you as you fall apart You don’t have to be afraid tonight I’ll lift you towards the light If you fade, I’ll stay til morning comes Through the pain, of what’s been done You don’t have to disappear this time I’ll always be by your side --- [OUTRO – soft fade] (ACOUSTIC) (WHISPER) …By your side… (SILENCE)
